Clearly, a weird weather day ahead: Pouring rain right now, a foot of snow continuing to melt, an inch of snow and ice forecast for evening and overnight. Creeks throwing a fit, Puppers refusing to go have a piss outside. Vigil against potential office flooding has begun though I don't think it will rain hard enough to break through but at this point, who knows.

On the bright side, fully – thanks to the help of a friend (whose work never ceases to amaze) that helped me see what I hadn't been seeing – cracked this comics thing / prelude after a decade of trying. It also took a line I had thought was the start of a fourth story module to reveal itself as an integral line in this comics thing to bring it all together. A few more nips and tucks to the script and then I have to figure out what to do with it – because this thing IS coming to life: my 15 years of comics writing heartbreak WILL end this year goddammit.

Think that's it – at least it's all I've written down up to now. The dogchildren require sustenance; the day awaits.
